If you really feel that the radio is the problem, why not pull the fuse for it for a couple of weeks and see if that is what's causing the problem before doing a wiring/ relay work around.

From this it would appear the 68222279AA is the correct one for a Journey? https://www.moparpartscanada.ca/oem-parts/mopar-control-module-68222278aa https://www.moparpartscanada.ca/oem-parts/mopar-control-module-68222279aa You can enter a VIN at this site to check https://www.moparpartsgiant.com/parts/mopar-module-telematics~68222279aa.html https://www.moparpartsgiant.com/parts/mopar-module-telematics~68222278aa.html

Watch this it's probably what you need for the older 3.6l the part is listed this is the guy that got them to make the bypass available without replacing the entire assembly

Glad you got it fixed.We have the same year Journey and I ran into this almost a year ago. I replaced the actuator but when I pulled the old one and just plugged it into the wiring harness it seemed to work. Some people report that tapping them can "wake them up" but there are 3 in the vehicle all the same so now I have a spare.

The recirculate door is stuck and not bringing in fresh air.It's behind the glovebox where the cabin filter sits.

There does seem to be a difference between parts with my 2013 and the 2017. I can find the rear blower motor resistor for a 2017 but not a front.

Where you show it should be looks right from a video I saw but maybe you have a different climate system?

Doesn't have to be a leak.I still haven't replaced my original brakes yet but they will be ready in the spring.But as the pads wear,the fluid level of course goes down and ours was tripping the brake light on when parked on an incline.

Check the brake fluid level?

I haven't done it but I suggest you state what engine you are working with if you want a valid answer.

I find this guy has some very useful videos including this He is the one who helped get Dorman to make the replacement parts.

When we had this problem a while back it was the alternator.Because it wasn't charging the battery you get battery save mode. How was the alternator tested?Pretty easy to test it on the vehicle with a multimeter.

The 3.6 loves the highway.It's a pig in the city for mpg but get it out on the open road and it performs.

There is one beside the glove box at the right that is for fresh air or recirculate. Another is to the left of the glovebox that I would assume is for the passenger side

The recirculate actuator is behind the glovebox on the right side of the cabin filter location.I took it out and when I plugged it back into the wiring harness it seemed to work.But I ordered a new one from the US for about $15 canadian since my wife will be there next week.You can order from Amazon https://www.amazon.ca/Dorman-604-029-Air-Door-Actuator/dp/B00HRSP2A6/ref=sr_1_1?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1552110225&s=automotive&sr=1-1&vehicle=2013-40-6800-2962--9-6--13827-14-1-1--246-2&vehicleName=2013+Dodge+Journey I also recommend this https://www.amazon.ca/Neiko-03044A-Mini-Size-Ratcheting-Screwdriver/dp/B000XYOUS6/ref=pd_sim_263_1/144-9645152-3666607?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B000XYOUS6&pd_rd_r=389e18b6-43b4-11e9-9df9-ff03b64505a6&pd_rd_w=AbwE1&pd_rd_wg=GyEEx&pf_rd_p=29a85b27-a36a-4f8d-94ca-61aa962c5f39&pf_rd_r=41N6N4X6RKSPHYK8HVNQ&psc=1&refRID=41N6N4X6RKSPHYK8HVNQ There are 2 philips screws holding it in but they are a pain to get at unless you unplug a couple of the wiring harnesses underneath. If you simply remove the actuator you can manually put the door into fresh air until you get a new actuator,that's what I have done for now. Check out this on youtube.The recirculate actuator is shown around 1:05 in to the video he's not sure what it is but that's the one that chooses fresh air or recirculate.

Removed the recirculate actuator and placed the door in fresh air position and the problem has gone away.Will order a new actuator from Amazon for about $35

Have this same problem and it appears the recirculate actuator is not working. If I crank down the window a bit the problem seems to go away so I am thinking it is stuck in the recirculate mode.

Did you not test drive the car before buying it?We first drove a gutless 2.4l Canada value package for a short ride before I asked to drive the 3.6.If you ask me the 2.4 is underpowered and offers little in the way of better mpg

A low battery or bad alternator will put in in battery saver mode

I think the slot up front is for an SD card at least in my 2013. I have never tried a video file in there so can't say if it works or not.

I have seen ours do this once in a while ,skipping radio stations but very intermittently.Also once in a while does not connect to the phone but not enough to be a major problem, at least yet.

Recall is only for 2014 and newer Journeys http://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/detail.aspx?lang=eng&mk=33038!24277!28000!6400!1849!2444!3714!4864!5115&md=0&fy=0&ty=9999&ft=&ls=0&sy=0&rn=2018269&cf=SearchResult&pg=0

Have you read through this thread? http://www.dodgejourneyforum.com/topic/8231-2010-journey-wont-start/?page=2

Have the battery tested even though you replaced it

That alternator is a pain in the a$$ to replace on the 3.6 although by the sounds of it you must be an expert on it now.
